Review of I Know Who Killed Me (2007) by Filipeneto — 05 Mar 2018

This film tells the story of a young woman who disappears and, after being found, claims to have a totally different identity. Directed by Chris Sivertson, has a script by Jeffrey Hammond and Lindsay Lohan in the lead role.

At first glance, the central idea of ​​the script seems worthy of a good thriller or horror movie. And indeed it is. The problem is the way it develops its concept. The script is totally overloaded with plot holes and paradoxes. Many people have criticized the overuse of cliche's but... well, horror film industry has literally lived with it since some years ago. For me, the problem isn't that, but the way these cliche's are framed and articulated. They just don't fit. The characters are also bad, don't have a proper development nor any personality. The central character, having two personalities, ends up not having anyone. The film is not clear about the existence of a twin sister, although its suggested. It tries to bet on bloody graphics but fails, and cinematography, sets and clothes opposes the blue and red colors (as the colors-symbol of the two different personalities of the main character), but that gives to the film a far-fetched and almost sickening visual, worthy of a B movie from the seventies. The soundtrack is bad and Lindsay Lohan gives again profs to be a bad actress and a stripper and pole dancer absolutely mediocre.
